Transportation Emails

The emails have gone out. Please remember to email [email protected] if you have any changes or questions. We will get to them as soon as we can and in the order they were received.

Norwalk Public and Parochial students - if your student will not be using school bus transportation, or your student is driving to school, please let us know and we will change them to “None-parent transport or None-student driver”.

If you are using a babysitter or day care, please email us with the name, address and phone number of the baysitter/day care provider. If they are getting on and off the bus at a different location, remember, we bus to one place from one place five days a week.

When sending our office an email, please make sure to include the students name(s) in the email.  It does not carry over to the email we receive. 

If you still have questions, please email the transportation helpdesk at [email protected].
